Subject: Changes in direct access to SXI data

This e-mail is being sent to the members of the SXI user community who 
access those data directly through the HTTP protocol.

The HTTP directory structure has been changed for GOES-12 and GOES-13, 
however, the old structure for GOES-12 will be supported indefinitely, 
i.e.:

This is the old structure used for GOES-12 only:
http://sxidata.ngdc.noaa.gov/archive/fits/2006/07/26/
http://sxidata.ngdc.noaa.gov/archive/browse/2006/07/26/

This is the new structure that supports both GOES-12 and GOES-13:
http://sxidata.ngdc.noaa.gov/archive/fits/goes12/2006/07/26/
http://sxidata.ngdc.noaa.gov/archive/browse/goes12/2006/07/26/
http://sxidata.ngdc.noaa.gov/archive/fits/goes13/2006/07/26/
http://sxidata.ngdc.noaa.gov/archive/browse/goes13/2006/07/26/

Access to GOES-13 browse images in PNG format is already enabled, 
however, access to the GOES-13 FITS data is restricted at this time.  
The decision regarding the release of GOES-13 FITS data will be made by 
Steven.Hill@... .

I've updated NGDC.pm so it's looking in the goes12 directory.

I still need to review how the tables are laid out, so we can get access to the new goes13 data.

(there's currently a goes13.tb_g13_LevelOne_Web, which doesn't have FITS header information, like sxi.tb_g12_LevelOne does)

Will also need to get filter wheel info.
